Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 20504 — What is mentioned on the virtue

Mudrik bin Awf al-Ahmasi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I was with Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) when the messenger of Sayyiduna al-Nu'man bin Muqarrin (may Allah be pleased with him) came. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked him about the condition of the fighters, and he said: "So-and-so and so-and-so were martyred, and some others were martyred whom I do not know." Umar said: "But Allah knows them." The man said: "O Commander of the Believers! There was also a man who offered his life (for the sake of Allah)." At this Mudrik bin Awf (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "O Commander of the Believers! By Allah, he was my maternal uncle. People claim that he threw himself into destruction with his own hands." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Those people have lied; he is among those who bought the Hereafter in exchange for this world."
